Box Office: Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu Weekend Collections - Steady weekend after a wobbly start

Box Office: Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu Weekend Figures - Steady weekend after a wobbly start

The movie collected Rs 5.25 Cr approx nett on day 1. Weekend was expected to churn around Rs 15-17 Cr nett but some great elevation on Saturday and Sunday made sure that the weekend was around the Rs 21 Cr nett mark.

With the new releases not doing well, the second weekend figures will add to the profit. Overall EMET turns out to be perfectly average at the box office just like Imran's character.

Box Office: Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu Day 1 Figures - Shaky Start

Dharma Productions is on a roll, first the Blockbuster Agneepath and now another awaited flick EMAET which shows lot of promise opened today at the box office.

Shockingly despite favourable reviews the movie did not take as good a start expected by many. But the good news is that positive word of mouth may affect the collections on the last two days of the weekend.

Made on a modest budget the movie is a safe bet for the producers since they can easily reach breakeven by earning from Satellite, Music, Video rights and even a nominal theatrical run worldwide.

The movie collected Rs 5.25 Cr approx nett on day 1. Weekend expected to churn around Rs 15-17 Cr nett.

Box Office: Agneepath Week 1 Collections - Blockbuster to cross the Rs 100 Cr Mark

2012-02-03T11:36:00.000-08:00

Box Office: Agneepath to cross the Rs 100 Cr Mark

Sanju Baba and Duggu are very soon going to join the elite Rs 100 Cr club which till now has members like Ajay Devgn, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan and SRK. Agneepath raked in Rs 92 Cr nett at the end of week 1, which means it's likely to cross the magical figure on Saturday.

The movie as predicted has turned out to be a big blockbuster.

Box Office: Blockbuster Agneepath breaks Bodyguard's record collects Rs 23 Cr on Day 1

2012-01-27T02:50:00.000-08:00

Box Office: Agneepath breaks Bodyguard's record

Bodyguard's opening record was short lived as Agneepath broke it fair & square by a margin of Rs 2 Cr.

The thunderous opening ensured that the movie garnered around Rs 23 Cr nett which is a new record. The movie has set the record for the biggest opening ever surpassing hits like Bodyguard, Dabangg & 3 Idiots.

This takes Sanjay Dutt and Hrithik Roshan to super-stardom with due credits to Katrina and Chikni Chameli.

Though this remake has broken the opening day record, it still has to do extraordinary to break Ra.One's highest single day collection of Rs 25 Cr nett.

Final Verdict - Agneepath is a Blockbuster. Baba and HR Fans rejoice with joy!!

P.S.- If Krrish 2 also manages such an opening, it will take HR to the number one spot with 3 blockbusters after 2 big duds. What a swap of fate for Duggu.

Box Office: Players Day 1 Collections

2012-01-05T22:26:00.000-08:00

Players - Day 1 Collections

Bobby Deol is the only player amongst the PLAYERS to have tasted success recently with Yamla Pagla Deewana. Rest all are craving for a huge hit. Abhishek Bachchan desperately needs a big hit so do Sonam and Neil.

Players has been promoted very well and released widely across 2000 screens. But the opening is very low around 20 to 30 %. It will be tedious to recover the investment with such a shocking opening. Abhishek as the lead man has failed yet again to get a solid start, so has Sonam as the leading lady.

The movie collected on Rs 5 Cr nett despite having a wide release. That is actually very bad news for a big budget flick like Players.

Stay tuned to this space for the weekend collections. Figures coming soon.

Box Office: Don 2 Week 1 Collections - Rs 75 Cr Hit for SRK

2011-12-30T12:18:00.000-08:00

Box Office: Don 2 - Rs 75 Cr in Week 1

The much needed clean hit for SRK has arrived with Don 2. The movie which took a Rs 15 Cr nett opening and made Rs 48 Cr nett in weekend sustained magnificently over the weekdays to add another Rs 27 Cr.

The total nett collections of Don 2 (All Languages) is a mammoth Rs 75 Cr nett for week 1. Though the single screens weren't great due to absence of a Chammak Chhalo number yet the multiplex audience flocked the movie in this Christmas-New Year Week.

SRK got the applause for his work, the makers Excel Entertainment got the profits and now the distributors Reliance are on path to make bigger profit once the movie passes the Rs 100 Cr mark. Its Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in real sense for Don 2.

As for Bollywood, 2011 started with a big bang (No One Killed Jessica and Yamla Pagla Deewana) and now it ends with a bigger bang (The Dirty Picture and Don 2).

Moviehattan Top 10 Best Films of 2011 - Missed The Bus

2011-12-28T02:48:00.000-08:00

Missed the Bus:-

Ready - This movie may be the third biggest grosser this year but took Salman Khan's buffoonery to the next level. Being a successor to Dabangg and the only big release post IPL gave this movie immense advantage to work big at the box office, still the audience felt cheated though they had few moments of laughter thanks to the brilliance of Paresh Rawal.

Ra. One - SRK's magnum opus did fall short big time but it was better and much harder than opening arms on a hill top and hugging different heroines (which he has been doing for decades) or even producing some big crap which worked like OSO. The movie would have been good if the over-hype and over-marketing would not have taken a toll. Put behind the thought of this being a Rs 150 Cr movie or something promoted rigorously over 12 months and you will find a certain Mr Khan trying something different though expensive.

Desi Boyz - Entertaining though not up to the mark, the movie falls apart post interval. However, the brighter side was that Akshay Kumar ends a decent year with a better movie after the horrible 2009 -10 period.

Don 2 - What was ought to be a Donly adventure turned out to be a mere game of robbery with bits and pieces of inspiration from hollywood. Luckily the Christmas week ensures the movie to be a good success.

Murder 2, Double Dhamaal, Tanu Weds Manu, Ragini MMS were successes too but could not make it to the list because there were successful movies with better content which worked big time.

10. Mere Brother Ki Dulhan - This one was a typically filmy movie which made you chuckle, have fun with some exceptionally good music. The traditional clean family entertainer from the YRF banner had some sweet performances but lacked a powerful script.

9. Rockstar - This Imtiaz Ali venture had something good, something bad, but something which is not run of the mill. The songs were superb but the movie fell short of being a masterpiece. The second hour was the culprit. The performances, songs, breezy first half and the direction made this movie worth watching.

8. Bodyguard - Though the Biggest Hit of the Year clearly benefiting from the goodwill of Dabangg, this movie ran purely due to Salman's star power and fan following. This movie had moments of entertainment but it took the audience for granted. The climax was what got diverse reactions but the only part of the movie which tried something different.

Moviehattan Top 10 Best Films of 2011 - Singham

2011-12-28T02:22:00.000-08:00

7. Singham - The best effort of Rohit Shetty so far after Zameen. He gets back to action and storytelling with a bang. Ajay Devgn too gets some action this time, something he was known for 16-18 years ago. Nothing innovative, the desi cat-mouse formula yet it does not treat the audience like fools watching crap on screen.

6. Pyaar Ka Punchnama - With an entire new cast and IPL season, there was no way that this movie would open big, but it proved like Band Baaja Baaraat did last year that good content works. Hence, the movie made on a small budget survived few weeks to slowly and steadily add money to the collections and churn out good profits. The content here was the hero plus some foot tapping music increases it's repeat value.

5. The Dirty Picture - Vidya Balan proved her worth at the Box-Office with this one. The lucky dude Emraan Hashmi never seems to sign a wrong script. After tremendous acclaim for OUATIM, Milan Luthria strikes back with another big hit. The ROI is huge.

4. Yamla Pagla Deewana - The first Big Hit of the year saw the Deols reunite after the success of Apne. The movie was all that a typical masala entertainer has and was one of the safest bets in terms of its lost and found age old formula. What made this movie class apart were the performances from the Deols and the support cast. Though not path breaking, it was a movie where you come enjoy, get satisfaction and then recall the moments after watching the movie. There are very few movies made today where the audience leave satisfied.
